(Women who behave rarely make history)
To: Kathy in Alaska
Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord:
He is trampling out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored;
He hath loosed the fateful lightning of His terrible swift sword:
His truth is marching on.
(Chorus)
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
His truth is marching on.
I have seen Him in the watch-fires of a hundred circling camps,
They have builded Him an altar in the evening dews and damps;
I can read His righteous sentence by the dim and flaring lamps:
His day is marching on.
(Chorus)
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
His day is marching on.
I have read a fiery gospel writ in burnished rows of steel:
“As ye deal with my contemners, so with you my grace shall deal;
Let the Hero, born of woman, crush the serpent with his heel,
Since God is marching on.”
(Chorus)
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
Since God is marching on.
He has sounded forth the trumpet that shall never call retreat;
He is sifting out the hearts of men before His judgment-seat:
Oh, be swift, my soul, to answer Him! be jubilant, my feet!
Our God is marching on.
(Chorus)
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
Our God is marching on.
In the beauty of the lilies Christ was born across the sea,
With a glory in His bosom that transfigures you and me:
As He died to make men holy, let us die to make men free,
While God is marching on.
(Chorus)
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
While God is marching on.
He is coming like the glory of the morning on the wave,
He is Wisdom to the mighty, He is Succour to the brave,
So the world shall be His footstool, and the soul of Time His slave,
Our God is marching on.
(Chorus)
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
Glory, glory, hallelujah!
Our God is marching on.

Hi Ma!
TGIF! :)
Cold enough for ya? Tis here!
...
YOU KNOW YOU’RE A NORTHERNER WHEN...
· You know the 4 seasons - winter, still winter, not winter and almost winter.
· You design your Halloween costumes to fit over a snowsuit.
· You have more miles on your snow blower than your car.
· Driving in winter is better, because all the potholes get filled with snow.
· You feel warm and toasty at minus 26.
· You find minus 40 a mite chilly.
· The trunk of your car doubles as a deep freezer.
· Somewhere in the area is a piece of frozen metal with bits of your tongue stuck to it.
· You thought “Grumpy Old Men” was a documentary.
· Men think sexy lingerie is tube socks and a flannel nightgown with only eight buttons.
· Your dog wears boots too.
· The mayor greets you on the street by your first name.
· If you don’t go out for lunch you miss the sunrise and sunset.
· Moose leave poopsicles around for the dogs.
· There is a sign outside of McDonalds that says: “Park dog teams in back”
· If the school district had snow days, no one would ever have to go to school.
· You live in a house that has no front steps, yet the door is one yard above the ground.
· You think the start of deer hunting season is a national holiday.
· You know which leaves make good toilet paper
